Evans VP-2 Airplane

​Due to the volume of such questions over the years related to the discontinued​VP-2, we have created this page on our website.

We here at Evans Aircraft appreciate your interest in the Evans VP-2. However, we stopped marketing and responding to technical inquiries regarding the VP-2 years ago due to liability issues associated with 2-seat airplanes. If VP-2 plans or modifications of VP-2 plans exist on the Internet , it is without our permission and therefore without our approval.

​Sincerely, Evans Aircraft

Q: Do we still sell VP-2 Plans?A: No. we used to sell them, but they are no longer marketed due to the double liability on any 2-place ​ (2-seater). ​

Q: Can you answer questions regarding the discontinued VP-2 Plans?A: No, with Bill Evan's death, those answers went with him to his place in the sky. Pete Evans, Bill's son, does not have any information on the VP-2 Plans whatsoever. You can search the Internet for information. There are many sites and forums that you can look at and join that may have the answers you are looking for.

Q: Can you find answers to my VP-2 questions for me?A: No, we are really sorry, but since we have discontinued the plans, we do not want to promote the VP-2 in any way for liability reasons. Your best plan of action is to search the internet yourself and find people who have successfully built and flown a VP-2.

Q: I never knew Evans made plans for a VP-2, can you tell me more about it?A: No, but you can find information on the Internet. We copied this for a short description, hope it helps.From Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaFollowing the success of the VP-1 a two-seat variant, the VP-2 was designed and the first example flew in 1971.
